long_o and_o unwieldie_a let_v we_o therefore_o take_v it_o in_o piece_n and_o consider_v the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n in_o four_o period_n of_o duration_n time_n i_o can_v call_v they_o because_o the_o last_o of_o they_o be_v eternity_n 1._o in_o this_o life_n but_o do_v not_o mistake_v i_o as_o though_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n here_o be_v more_o worth_a then_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v to_o in_o the_o first_o query_n viz._n better_o than_o what_o there_o be_v in_o heaven_n unless_o you_o take_v it_o precise_o and_o abstract_o as_o if_o you_o conceive_v heaven_n to_o be_v enjoy_v without_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n and_o then_o that_o poor_a pittance_n of_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n which_o we_o may_v have_v here_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o heaven_n will_v be_v to_o eternity_n heaven_n will_v be_v a_o burden_n to_o we_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n there_o and_o therefore_o john_n 17.21_o christ_n pray_v that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v one_o as_o thou_o father_n be_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o thou_o that_o they_o also_o may_v be_v one_o in_o we_o there_o be_v not_o equality_n but_o there_o be_v similitude_n there_o be_v reality_n dignity_n union_n communion_n the_o enjoyment_n we_o have_v of_o god_n in_o this_o life_n be_v either_o in_o ordinance_n or_o in_o duty_n or_o in_o grace_n and_o all_o through_o christ_n i_o may_v speak_v of_o these_o distinct_o but_o i_o forbear_v because_o they_o do_v sweet_o coincidere_fw-la the_o same_o thing_n may_v be_v a_o ordinance_n in_o regard_n of_o god_n appointment_n a_o duty_n in_o respect_n of_o our_o management_n and_o a_o grace_n through_o the_o spirit_n influence_n e._n g._n prayer_n as_o god_n require_v it_o it_o be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o prayer_n as_o we_o perform_v it_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n as_o the_o spirit_n assist_v we_o it_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o prayer_n now_o there_o be_v a_o common_a presence_n of_o god_n in_o ordinance_n which_o be_v as_o the_o outward_a court_n open_v for_o all_o comer_n and_o alas_o most_o person_n go_v no_o further_o but_o there_o be_v the_o secret_a of_o his_o presence_n within_o the_o veil_n for_o his_o own_o and_o nothing_o less_o will_v satisfy_v they_o psal_n 63._o o_o god_n thou_o be_v my_o god_n early_o will_v i_o seek_v thou_o my_o soul_n thirst_v for_o thou_o my_o flesh_n long_v for_o thou_o to_o see_v thy_o power_n and_o thy_o glory_n as_o i_o have_v see_v thou_o in_o the_o sanctuary_n my_o soul_n follow_v hard_a after_o thou_o 2._o the_o second_o period_n of_o our_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n be_v between_o our_o dissolution_n and_o resurrection_n and_o now_o we_o begin_v to_o launch_v out_o into_o the_o deep_a you_o know_v peter_n speak_v excellent_a thing_n of_o faith_n 1_o pet._n 1.8_o by_o believe_v in_o he_o who_o we_o never_o see_v we_o rejoice_v with_o joy_n unspeakable_a and_o full_a of_o glory_n but_o what_o be_v faith_n to_o fruition_n what_o be_v hear_v to_o vision_n we_o must_v now_o go_v soft_o lest_o our_o foot_n stumble_v upon_o the_o dark_a mountain_n consider_v therefore_o particular_o what_o the_o body_n enjoy_v of_o god_n while_o it_o lie_v in_o the_o grave_n and_o then_o what_o the_o soul_n enjoy_v of_o he_o at_o the_o same_o time_n 1._o the_o body_n the_o body_n what_o be_v a_o dead_a body_n capable_a of_o what_o shall_v we_o speak_v of_o a_o piece_n of_o putrify_v rot_a stink_a clay_n though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o lovely_a while_n live_v yet_o we_o say_v of_o it_o when_o dead_a as_o abraham_n of_o sarah_n remove_v it_o out_o of_o my_o sight_n ay_o but_o god_n will_v not_o say_v so_o he_o count_v the_o dust_n of_o jacob_n he_o that_o love_v we_o when_o we_o be_v nothing_o do_v not_o love_v we_o less_o for_o our_o rottenness_n 1._o the_o body_n have_v rest_n in_o the_o grave_n and_o peace_n there_o and_o sleep_v there_o never_o better_o in_o bed_n of_o down_o isa_n 57.2_o they_o shall_v enter_v into_o peace_n they_o shall_v rest_v in_o their_o bed_n every_o one_o that_o have_v walk_v upright_o 2._o the_o body_n in_o the_o grave_n be_v still_o unite_a unto_o christ_n 1_o thes_n 4.14_o the_o body_n sleep_v in_o jesus_n as_o one_o that_o draw_v a_o sword_n and_o hold_v the_o scabbard_n in_o one_o hand_n and_o the_o sword_n in_o the_o other_o have_v both_o in_o his_o hand_n though_o separate_v so_o when_o christ_n draw_v out_o the_o soul_n never_o shall_v any_o man_n or_o devil_n pluck_v the_o body_n out_o of_o his_o hand_n be_v not_o this_o enough_o for_o a_o carcase_n 2._o what_o then_o do_v the_o soul_n enjoy_v if_o the_o body_n have_v so_o much_o the_o soul_n be_v capable_a of_o much_o more_o the_o body_n can_v have_v but_o a_o senseless_a happiness_n which_o though_o it_o shall_v be_v without_o it_o can_v not_o complain_v of_o want_n but_o the_o soul_n live_v and_o be_v free_a from_o that_o clog_n which_o inevitable_o hinder_v it_o in_o its_o high_a activity_n it_o be_v now_o at_o liberty_n and_o enjoy_v 1._o a_o long-desired-freedom_n from_o sin_n i_o may_v have_v say_v as_o much_o of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o body_n be_v not_o sensible_a of_o its_o freedom_n and_o though_o it_o be_v pura_fw-la massa_fw-la in_o the_o hand_n of_o christ_n who_o will_v present_v it_o without_o spot_n or_o wrinkle_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o soul_n only_o that_o understand_v its_o freedom_n and_o apprehend_v its_o
